In the sexy world of high stakes gambling De Wet King owns and
operates the Silver City string of casinos and luxury resorts in South
Africa. He considers the business a family affair and for the past
25 years his childhood friend, Jacob Ndlovu, has been his righthand
man. While De Wet is a slick businessman, Jacob brings the
intimidation factor necessary to keep the casinos in line.
Our story revolves around the three pillars of modern-day South
Africa – family, money and religion. Things get going when Jacob’s
only daughter, Thandi, returns from completing her law articles to
uncover that De Wet has been using her loyal father as a silent BEE
partner to line his own pockets. De Wet’s tragic flaw is his greed and
his natural assumption that everyone else shares it, including Jacob.
As such he stabs Jacob in the back before he can be betrayed himself.
What ensues is a feud that will tear the casino empire apart and set
Jacob and De Wet on a path to all-out war
